Choking one of your own players, head butting one of your players, kicking your own son. I watched him flip Purdue Person Vitale over once, now that one was Dickie V's fault he jumped on Knight's back surprising him. But Knight did a lot of bad things. 

1.  Neil Reed shouldn't have walked into his hand

2.  Sherron Wilkerson's head shouldn't have been there

3.  Who doesn't want to?

I'd also like to point out that Bob Knight did all of these alleged things to his own players.  These players knew who he was when they signed up to play for him.  If any of them said they were surprised that any of these alleged incidents occurred, then they're lying.  They all knew what they voluntarily signed up for.

Nobody on other teams signed up for what Howard or Gard did.

4.  He just showed them toilet paper.  Not the full poop.

That would have inspired me..........................................to leave the locker room.

Also, do away with the handshake lines. This isn't youth sports. It's a highly competitive game and emotions run high, no reason for shaking hands

Baloney.  Time to be a man and congratulate your opponent.  Boxers literally beat the crap out of each other, and usually give a handshake at the end.

I'd say he wouldn't do it to Painter or Izzo because those two are kind of the "old dudes" of the conference. By far the longest tenured of any coaches I believe. All of this stupidity has literally zero to do with race. Not a thing. But people will continue pushing that crap narrative. Whether anyone likes it or not, Gard didn't throw as punch or slap thing or whatever Howard was trying to do and Howard has already had an incident once. I don't remember Gard having any similar incidents with other coaches. Howard just still acts like an NBA player where everyone else is wrong and he's right. Up to the Big Ten to take care of it. That goes for Howard and Gard. Along with Gards inability to control the dirty play of his players. There definitely seemed more to it all than just coach mad at coach. A lot seemed to have boiled over outside of that. 

Right, let's not call it a "punch."  It was some sort of girliman slap.  

But rather than fire, suspend, etc. treat them like the babies that they are.  Just put the two the them at center court, shirts off, and wiffle ball bats in hand.  They can take turns smacking each other with plastic bats (no head shots) and all the money goes to charity.  What a way to start off the Big 10 Tourney.

Lol we will never agree on this so I won't bother. Just saying imo what I saw yesterday was unprofessional. Only a few players ever talked poorly of knight.

Knights tactics and actions were not something that ages well. He was on a thin rope in the years leading up to his firing. Times were changing and he wasnt. 

that said, I cannot recall in the modern era a head d-1 basketball coach punching someone after a game. Pretty unprecedented and hopefully the last time we see that.

Let's keep the shirts on.

I recall seeing a shirtless Juwan scrimmaging with MJ and the boys during "The Last Dance." And he was fine.

But now you've put an image of Greg Gard without a shirt in my mind. I just vomited in my mouth. Twice.
